This line of thinking, carried to its logical conclusion, would
eliminate power categories, single vs multi-op, one TX vs multi-TX and
any other categories.  There would be only one category, period.

Categories exist because they are a natural dividing point and people
want them.  There can be as many or as few categories as people want.
If you like things as they are, just say so.  Don't put down folks who
would like to make it "better".
